We often struggle for searching a file on Windows.Windows has a desktop search tool which is not on par.Everything Search is one of the best search utility for a windows desktop with many simple and useful features !
"Everything" is a FREEWARE administrative tool that locates files and folders by file name instantly for Windows.Unlike Windows search "Everything" initially displays every file and folder on your computer (hence the name "Everything").
Download your version of Everything for free from
http://www.voidtools.com/download.php
The only perquisite is that it works only for NTFS volumes of the computer.
How is Everything different from other search engines
- Small installation file.
- Clean and simple user interface.
- Quick file indexing.
- Quick searching.
- Quick startup.
- Minimal resource usage.
- Small database on disk.
- Real-Time updating.
"Everything" only uses file and folder names and generally takes a few seconds to build it's database.A fresh install of Windows XP SP2 (about 20,000 files) will take about 1 second to index.
Following is the example which shows how Everything displays files and folders having related term.

I recommend TheSearchMan.
unlike Everything , TheSearchMan’s database is encrypted and it doesn’t show ALL files at the startup.
The database of Everything is on the most wanted List of hackers as it lists all your files.
TheSearchMan is a mere 30 KB download.
It is portable also. That means NO INSTALLATION.
Unlike Everything or Locate32 which can only search in the index, TheSearchMan can do real searching,ie, in the drive with a super fast speed.
It searched my 50GB Seagate drive in a little over 2 seconds.
It has bagged many 5 stars and Top Software awards.
The interface of TheSearchMan is extremely simple.
Just enter the path and search criteria
TheSearchMan’s database is updated on the fly.
